Eating well

For Christmas, my brother Matt and his wife Terri got Kevin a subscription to Eating Well magazine, and we are head over heels in love with it! It's got fantastic recipes, and we especially like the weekday "in a hurry" meals.

We've tried two recipes, first was the Skillet Tuna Noodle Casserole, which was surprisingly delicious, although it was missing something...we think salt. But alas, we are trying to reorient our palates to less sodium, so we didn't add anymore. However, a dash of cayenne pepper really boosted it up!

Then last night I made Chicken and Sundried Tomato Orzo. It was totally amazing! We steamed up some fresh organic broccoli for a side dish, which we haven't had in a really long time. We usually just buy frozen broccoli, and the difference in the flavor was astounding! Yay for the arrival of spring produce!

One note, the portions were gigantic! It said it served four, so we took a quarter each, and it was enormous! I probably would have said six-eight servings, depending on what else was being served with it. A successful meal anyhow. Next up is Kung Pao Tofu. First time cooking with tofu, so we shall see!
